Greedmont Park x Hollywood Floss Present: The Xperiment 2
Tuesday, August 10, 2010 by perusetheeCOOL | 7 Comments; | Category: Downloads, Music, Rap
Months ago, during my search for the hottest underground MCs, I ran across this guy: Hollywood Floss hails from Houston Texas and his eclectic taste in music shows throughout his tracks. I remember reading on the 2dopeboyz site about his method to getting his music heard and I truly admire his hustle for building his own BRAND!! We keep in touch via twitter [@HollywoodFLOSS] and after reading his tweets about this project, I had to be apart of it. The concept is pretty unique:
“As an artist its hard to please yourself, media and fans – so why not get as close as possible! And thats why i’ve created the Xperiment! … The mixtape started as a way to build my catalog and get out rough versions of ideas i had in my mind… This recent 2009 Thanksgiving i decided to record as much material as time would allow, hoping to have fun and create some great material along the way to promote my new LP House of Dreams… i will send blogs the same amount of Hollywood FLOSS songs… and its up to you to pick which one you like or dont like or want to post or not… Instead of trying to guess what you would like, you can actually have fun with the tracklisting… I tried to throw a lil something for all audiences”
Expect to see alot more posts on this rapper, possibly an interview too: STAY TUNED! To see the tracks I chose and get the download link to this mixtape and a few of his other projects:
